Ooooh, Burn!

I was getting my coffee this morning and holding the lid as I poured. When I accidentally dropped the lid my cat-like reflexes instinctively went to catch it. Unfortunately I tried to catch it with the hand holding the un-capped coffee.

I burned my hand with just below boiling level liquid. It's a very impressive red color, my whole hand. It must be about a 2nd degree burn, I even have a blister!

I just got back from Whole Foods where I got some essential lavender oil (helps heal burns). I've also been icing it for about an hour and a half, AND I've taken a bunch of ibuprofen.

I almost didn't mention this: OUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
